CMP Rimfire Sporter Rifle Match

Samuel Payne is the only competitor to ever fire a perfect score of 600 in the Rimfire Sporter Match

The
CMP National Rimfire Sporter Match offers shooters a recreation
oriented competition where they use smallbore sporter rifles
(plinking and small game rimfire rifles) commonly owned by almost all gun
enthusiasts. This is a unique match where all you need is a rifle and
ammo. The
Rimfire Sporter course of fire is challenging, new shooters can
successfully complete it while experienced shooters find it uniquely
challenging. Firing
is done at 50 and 25 yards on a target with a 1.78" ten-ring and an 18"
outer one-ring. The target is simple enough for a beginner to hit, yet
challenging enough that only one competitor in the history of the match
has ever fired a perfect 600x600 score. See below for More Info and our upcoming matches. Additional info can be found on the in this CMP Rimfire Sporter Rifle Guide and on theCMP Sporter Rifle website.

A slightly chilly but beautifully clear and calm morning made for perfect conditions at the first rimfire sporter match of the year. Turnout was light, with just two attendees, one calling the line and the other shooting the match, but both had a good time shaking the cobwebs off after a long winter hiatus. Scores and details listed in the match report.
